Professional Licensing & Misconduct

Health Care Professionals:

Handling professional licensing and regulatory compliance matters for licensed professionals is an area in which Lemery Greisler's attorneys not only have extensive experience but excel. In this practice area, our representation has been largely of real estate professionals and physicians, nurses, and other health care providers. To these professionals, the Firm provides a full range of representation before various New York State regulatory agencies, including the Department of State, the Health Department, the Office of Professional Medical Conduct, and the Department of Education, in defense of disciplinary actions to suspend or revoke a person's license. In these cases, we handle all phases of a complaint, from the initial response and investigative interview to client representation at hearings, appeals, and court review of the administrative process.
